Following "The Great Battle", Gao Xixi's another historical revolutionary drama "Dawn of the East" was broadcast on Central One. This time
partnered with Long Pingping, the screenwriter of "The Age of Awakening", but who would have expected that since the broadcast, there have been constant controversies, many plots that are inconsistent with history, and even a fictional heroine, who is played by Liu Tao Ji Nanyin.
Gao Xixi is "true love" for Liu Tao, from Song Meiling in "The Great Battle" to Ji Nanyin in "Dawn of the East", but Song Meiling is real, but this Ji Nanyin is a fiction. In order to highlight the heroine, she is also a relative of a national army general and a speculator. She has "repeatedly made extraordinary achievements" like a joke, and she is portrayed as a heroine. Divine drama.
Ji Nanyin played by Liu Tao has been successful or unsuccessful.
Of course, in addition to the failure of the heroine, there is also the male protagonist, Chen Yi played by Zhang Jiayi, who is also a big failure.
's whole body is completely inconsistent, standing without standing posture, sitting without sitting, and walking with a hunched back. The interpretation lacks humor, and what is finally presented is the image of a middle-aged uncle, not a general and marshal. There are also a lot of problems with the lines. Many times, the ending sound is deliberately raised, thinking that something is wrong, and the dialect is tasteless.
was praised by the well-known host Cao Kefan for his interpretation and shaping.
Cao Kefan is a well-known host of Dragon TV and a visiting professor of Tongji University. He has also starred in film and television works, such as "Jinling Thirteen Beauties" and "Glory and Dream". Now this "Dawn of the East" is also broadcast on Dragon TV. So let this well-known host pay special attention.
He commented on Zhang Jiayi's Chen Yi, is heroic and free and easy, with extraordinary bearing, flesh and blood, and full of life and sound. Evaluations like
are quite high.
Of course, from the point of view of performance, there is indeed a side of "'s majesty and majesty, and ". In the movie, Zhang Jiayi can be seen frequently raising the volume to show Chen Yi's mighty arrogance, but the portrayal in this way is not natural and vivid, on the contrary, it feels deliberate. As for " full of poetic and romantic feelings ", at least it has not been presented until now, and it has always been in a tense state. It is too tiring for the audience to watch, and it has not performed the kind of humor of Chen Yi. In summary,
lacks a sense of hierarchy, no sense of three-dimensionality, only a sense of superiority, and no down-to-earth side.
Mr. Cao Kefan pointed out that in the history of Chinese and foreign film and television dramas, there are many successful examples of using well-known actors to play historical figures, such as "Lincoln" by Daniel Day Lewis, "Churchill" by Gary Oldman, "Jiao Yulu" by Li Xuejian... .... Of course, a comparison will reveal that there is still a big gap between Zhang Jiayi's shaping of Chen Yi.
Mr. Cao Kefan also specifically mentioned that conceptualization is the most taboo in the creation of historical characters. Indeed, based on Zhang Jiayi's qualifications and experience, he has his own understanding and shaping of characters, and he will not simplify and conceptualize to create a different Chen Yilai. However, for Chen Yi, he has too much shaping in film and television dramas. There are many successful examples, such as the portrayal of actors such as Liu Xitian and Gu Wei, so the public already has an inherent image of Chen Yi, and such a comparison is even more difficult to substitute. Especially Zhang Jiayi's own physical problems, he has already lost a lot in appearance alone. Even if it is hard to deduce the inside, it is still difficult to be convincing and agreeable.
In the end, Cao Kefan even said that Zhang Jiayi allows the audience to find "strangeness" in familiarity, that is to say, it was Zhang Jiayi at the beginning, but since then he has agreed with this Chen Yi, and forgot about Zhang Jiayi himself. He even called this "familiarity" Survival" creative concept.
I don't agree with this statement even more. At least 10 episodes have been broadcast now. The Chen Yi played by Zhang Jiayi is still Zhang Jiayi himself, not Chen Yi. It is still difficult to accept and agree with.
noDirector Gao Xixi is quite confident. In an interview, he said that what values most is Zhang Jiayi's "spiritual resemblance" and strong character creation ability. "Because the capacity of this drama is very large, we need the performers to be powerful, so we weighed the pros and cons and felt that Zhang Jiayi can achieve an effect that combines both form and spirit." Such an effect. It has to be said that Gao Xixi harmed Zhang Jiayi this time, and Zhang Jiayi did not challenge the role of success.
Zhang Jiayi holds many blockbusters such as "Snail House", "One Servant and Two Masters", "White Deer Plain", "Youth School", "Installation", "Mountain and Sea Love", and is also a Magnolia, Feitian Award, and Golden Eagle Award. Acting prowess, but after all, he still stumbled in "Dawn of the East".
